Remi, the AI receptionist from Keres AI, picks up in two rings while your crew is on a job — grades the emergency, takes the service address, gives a dispatch window and writes the job into ServiceTitan or your calendar. Anything it cannot take gets a text back inside 60 seconds. - Answers in 2 rings - Contract Month-to-month - Found from $249/mo ## What does Keres AI do for home services? Keres AI gives home service contractors two things: Found, a website plus Google Business Profile and review management from $249 a month, and Remi, an AI receptionist that answers every call in two rings, 24/7, flags emergencies like no heat or a burst pipe, and books the job into ServiceTitan or Google Calendar. Calls Remi cannot take get a text back within 60 seconds. ## How does Remi answer and book a home-service call? Remi by Keres AI answers your line in two rings, 24/7, while your crew is on a job. Remi grades each call on emergency rules you write with Keres AI: for example, a gas smell means telling the caller to leave the building and call the utility or 911 from outside, while no heat with an infant at home goes to your on-call tech now. Remi then takes the job type, equipment, service address and access notes, offers a real arrival window and books the job into ServiceTitan, Google Calendar or HubSpot during the call, so dispatch sees the job where it already looks. Any call Remi cannot take gets a text back within 60 seconds, and the conversation carries on by SMS until the job is booked or handed to a person. ## What does Keres AI cost for a home-service business? Found by Keres AI costs from $249 a month for a home-service business and covers the website, Google Business Profile management, a review request after every job and consistent listings, with no build fee at the base tier. Remi, the AI receptionist, is quoted to your call volume: one monthly rate with included minutes, then per minute, with no per-call fees. Heat waves, freezes and storms bring the calls, so the quote sizes Remi’s included minutes to your busiest week rather than an average month. Everything is month-to-month, with 30 days’ written notice to cancel. For comparison, live answering services publish plans from $99 a month (PATLive, 50 minutes) and AI receptionists from $24.95 (Upfirst, 30 calls), according to each vendor’s pricing page on October 11, 2026. ## Which field-service software does Remi book into? Remi books jobs into ServiceTitan, Google Calendar and HubSpot today, and Zapier passes each job to other apps. Jobber, Housecall Pro, Twilio, RingCentral, Outlook, Make, FieldEdge, Service Fusion, Acuity Scheduling and Slack are rolling out and are not live yet, so a shop that schedules in Jobber or Housecall Pro would book into a shared Google Calendar in the meantime. In ServiceTitan, Remi creates the job with the call notes attached, so the technician is not calling the office for the address. Assignment stays with your dispatcher: Remi books the window, and dispatch decides which truck goes. See [how Remi writes jobs into ServiceTitan](https://www.keresai.com/integrations/servicetitan). ## Why the phone beats the schedule Home-services demand arrives exactly when nobody can answer it: during a heat wave, after a storm, at 6 a.m. with no heat. Keres AI estimates that 35–50% of HVAC demand arrives outside office hours, and when the house is at 90°F the caller does not wait on hold — they call the next company on the list. 30–45% of calls go unanswered during peak season [HVAC answering benchmarks](https://www.keresai.com/benchmarks/hvac-answering) 35–50% of demand arrives after hours [HVAC answering benchmarks](https://www.keresai.com/benchmarks/hvac-answering) $300–$600 typical value of one service call [HVAC answering benchmarks](https://www.keresai.com/benchmarks/hvac-answering) Keres AI estimates and the reasoning behind them: [HVAC answering benchmarks](https://www.keresai.com/benchmarks/hvac-answering). ## What does Remi do on the call, in order? Remi runs the script you would run if you had time to answer every call yourself: in your vocabulary, in this order, every time. 1. **Emergency grading** No heat with a newborn in the house is not the same call as a seasonal tune-up. Remi grades it on your rules and flags the ones that need a truck today. 2. **Job qualification** Job type, equipment, service address, access notes, and whether this is the property you already quoted an estimate on. 3. **Dispatch window** Remi offers the windows you actually have open and commits to one on the call, instead of promising that someone will ring back. 4. **Written to your software** The job lands in ServiceTitan or your calendar with the notes attached (Jobber, Housecall Pro, Twilio, RingCentral, Outlook, Make, FieldEdge, Service Fusion, Acuity Scheduling and Slack are rolling out), so the tech is not calling the office for the address. 5. **Missed-call text-back** Any call that still gets away gets a text inside 60 seconds asking what they need — and the conversation carries on by SMS. ## Which trades does Remi cover? - **HVAC** No-heat and no-cool triage, maintenance-plan renewals, and the seasonal surge that no front desk can absorb. - **Plumbing** Burst-pipe and backup emergencies graded on the call, with the water-shutoff question asked before anyone is dispatched. - **Roofing** Post-storm call surges, insurance-claim intake, and inspection appointments booked while the neighbours are still on hold elsewhere. - **Septic, towing & electrical** Location, access and urgency captured first, because the dispatch decision is the whole job. ## What happens after the call? Answering is stage one of three. Theo, the Keres AI follow-up worker, confirms and reminds so the appointment is kept, and June, the reactivation worker, works the list of people who already chose you and sends every customer the same review request. - **Theo** Follow-Up Worker [What Theo does](https://www.keresai.com/agents/follow-up) - Confirms the window, texts when the tech is on the way, and chases every estimate on day 1, day 3 and day 7 until you have a yes or a no. - **June** Reactivation Worker [What June does](https://www.keresai.com/agents/reactivation) - Runs the tune-up season campaign against your customer list, revives the estimates that went cold, and asks for a review after every completed job. ## You don’t log into a dashboard. You get a text. One message each morning with what happened overnight, which source produced the bookings, and the single thing that needs a person. ## Put your own numbers in.

It creates and grades the job, offers a real dispatch window and writes it to ServiceTitan or your calendar. Assignment stays with your dispatcher — the Daily Brief flags any job that still has no truck on it. See [dispatch automation](https://www.keresai.com/glossary/dispatch-automation) for how the pieces fit. ### What about the seasonal surge? Your quote sizes Remi’s included minutes to your busy season, so plan it around your heaviest week, not an average one. Billing is a monthly rate with included minutes, then per minute, with no per-call fees. Ask on your first call how Remi handles your peak volume. ### What does it cost? Found starts at $249/month. Remi is quoted to your call volume, locations and integrations. Month-to-month. ### How long does setup take? It depends on your call flows and integrations, and the timing is agreed on your first call: thirty minutes on how calls run today, then your script, your number, and your calendar or ServiceTitan, and you test it yourself before it answers a customer. ### What if the caller needs a person? You set the rules — a gas smell, a flood, a commercial account — and Remi warm-transfers to your on-call number, with a "call me now" alert as the fallback. ### Is there a contract? No long-term contract. Month-to-month, cancel with 30 days’ written notice, and your number stays yours.
